The Horizon Europe Call HORIZON-CL4-INDUSTRY-2025-01-HUMAN-64 seeks to support the development and strengthening of Technology Infrastructures in Europe. The initiative focuses on pilot areas critical to Europe’s strategic competitiveness and technological autonomy. This action aims to provide a detailed mapping of existing Technology Infrastructures, analyze industrial users' needs, and identify gaps between the supply and demand of such services. A forward-looking approach is essential to determine measures for improving service provision, increasing visibility, and addressing investment priorities.
By engaging all relevant stakeholders, including industry partners, SMEs, technology providers, and experts, the project will deliver a comprehensive understanding of the Technology Infrastructure landscape. The call emphasizes collaboration with existing projects and synergies with EU, national, and regional programs. Outputs include a validated European strategy, a “masterplan,” and actionable recommendations to enhance the availability and impact of Technology Infrastructure services in strategic areas.
